Diaz did not miss his flight Tuesday, Pierson said. He did not get on his originally scheduled flight, but that was the plan all along. Diaz, Pierson said, will be arriving in Las Vegas on Wednesday morning and will be on time to open workouts Wednesday afternoon. As of 10 a.m. PT, though, Diaz was not in the air en route here.

"This isn't the old Nick not showing up," Pierson said. "There were some logistical issues. Everything is on schedule now."
